A South Shore man who has been the victim of racial profiling by Longueuil police is filing a new complaint against the force.

Joel De Bellefeuille's legal saga began in 2009 when officers repeatedly stopped him while driving a new BMW.

Fed up with the unjustified harassment, De Bellefeuille took Longueuil police to court and won.

The officers involved admitted the only reason they had for stopping De Bellefeuille was because they did not think a black man could have a "Quebecois name."

The police ethics commission reprimanded the two officers involved, and each was suspended without pay for five days.

New De Bellefeuille is lodging a new complaint, because three years after his victory, police continue to stop him while driving.

Last Friday, De Bellefeuile pulled into a hotel parking lot around 9:30 p.m. and officers immediately came up to him.

“They had said that they'd seen me do an infraction and that infraction was not wearing a seatbelt,” said De Bellefeuille.

He said he was wearing a seatbelt, but was issued a fine anyway. He also said he believes the police officers would never have been able to see inside his car anyway, because the windows are tinted.

When he looked at the ticket later, De Bellefeuille noticed police had issued him a ticket for having a passenger under the age of 16 not wearing a seatbelt, along with a $125 fine and three demerit points.

De Bellefeuille said when police stopped him there was nobody else in the car.

He went to court on Monday to file his challenge for the ticket, and that is when he discovered he had been issued a second fine for not wearing a seatbelt himself, along with another $125 fine and three more demerit points.

De Bellefeuille said he is tired of this type of behaviour from police.

"I know that the city of Longueuil has somewhat adapted or tried to adapt to training their officers, but it's got to start a lot better than it's doing now," he said.

"It's got to start with management; it's got to start with officers down on the ground."

De Bellefeuille said he will contest both tickets in court, but he, along with the Centre for Research-Action on Race Relations, is demanding a full audit of how Longueuil police operate.

“We're going to look at a possibility of asking in this coming complaint to ask the commission to practically to audit the police department of Longueuil and how it deals with racial profiling,” said CRARR executive director Fo Niemi.

Earlier this year the city of Longueuil adopted an action plan against discrimination and police say their officers have been receiving training for the last four years.

“We're committed to train our officers to better inform them and also to better equip them in order to better understand our community's needs,” said Longueuil police Capt. Nancy Colagiacomo.
